Al-Qurthubi's interpretation of the woman's 'awrah is the whole body that can cause orgasm from the tip of the hair to the toe except the face and both palms. Meanwhile, according to Muhammad Shahrur it has two limitations, namely minimum and maximum. The minimum limit of 'awrah which have to be covered by women, i.e. breast to genitals, while the maximum limitation is the limbs as a whole except the face and palms.

Furthermore, the understanding of the 'awrah is even socialized to the people, that the 'awrah is not only associated with physical areas, but it can also be seen from the piety and righteous charity of one's.
